Product name
RoboScan Internet Security Free 2.5.0.21
Pros
  • 1. Nice and Easy Interface

    2. Low Ram Usage

    3. Light on System

    4. Quick Scanning and Removal
CONS
1. Poor Web Blocking

2. Not So Great on Detection Rate

3. Behavioral Blocker did not exist!
BOTTOM LINE
According to my testings, RoboScan did not protect me against
nasty things. I do hope they improve really fast because if
they don't then they will be gone quickly as if they did not
exist. The biggest issue with RoboScan is there disadvantages
because its hard and really important to fix. At this time, I will
not recommend this to users unless they show improvements.

detection rate is not that good, even though they are using Bitdefender and their own TERA engine , software update cycle is tooo low....

I would sacrifice low memory consumption and fast scanning for great protection and a regularly updated software

Does not show the Bitdefender engine version, is it available in the free version or must one pay for it?

RoboScan uses two anti-virus engine BitDefender and Roboscan Tera (ALYac)
Here is an older engine BitDefender. Thus for protection are also various proactive and cloud technologies, which are not included in the engine .

Didn't know that. Makes a lot of sense, explains their low detection rates compared to other BD-powered products.
Just right-click the tray icon and select 'Roboscan Product Information'

Actually, there are two things that are worth mentioning about this product:

Very light
Fast scan

But detection is poor.
